I want to build a macOS app that filters specific network requests so I need to add the NetworkExtensions capability. But after I add a NetworkExtensions capability, I get the following message:
Your development team, "Potato Dev2", does not support the Network Extensions capability.
Image of where the above message is from: https://i.stack.imgur.com/H46gE.png
From Apple's documentation on "Adding Capabilities to Your App":
The platform, and whether you're a member of the Apple Developer Program, may limit the capabilities available to your app
The documentation doesn't explicitly say which capabilities require being a part of the Apple Developer Program. I also don't see why I'd need to be a part of the Apple Developer Program to write software on and for my own computer. Note that, at least to my knowledge, the NetworkExtensions capability does not depend on any service from Apple (as opposed to HealthKit or Game Center).
So is there a way to add a Network Extensions capability to a macOS app without joining the Apple Developer Program?
